The more I watch the trailer and speculate, the more excited I get about this. I loved T-1 and T-2 and I'm hoping this is more in line with those than the later ones. This time traveling reboot has worked very well with Star Trek and X-Men imo and it fits better into the Terminator plot.I will probebly be disappointed but for now I will let my inner fanboy run free!!!!

^ Oh yeah Chekov from Star Trek was a terrible Kyle Reese.Jai Courtney is good to play the character, but still really looks and seems nothing like the Original Kyle.
But the T3 plot was a terrible attempt at doing another T2. "Talk to the hand.." Uggghh!
That's his name Chekov! I was way off

Yeah I agree trailer looked great, but I'm being cautiously optimistic.
Hoping for something great, but prepared for it going all wrong.
Either way I'm definitely not expecting anything on Par with T2.
Ripley in Alien films - I was always asking why the hell she always needed to be involved when the Aliens could terrorise someone else?
I don't feel that way with Terminator - there are many of him and he's like the backbone of Skynet's Terminator units - T1000 was a prototype as was the TX. The previous series' were discontinued (400 series, etc).
Just made more sense he was always around.
Now, I like that they've pulled the rug by invading the timelines of film 1.
This links it better than T3 or TS IMO.
As far as I can tell it has been done faithfully and with thought - Sarah protected by a Terminator for decades, now with its human tissue aged, it knows what will happen as it was sent with this knowledge AFTER the Termintor in T1 was sent back.
How does it know exactly WHERE the first Terminator arrives or where Reese does? We'll have to see. How could the resistance send him to protect the young Sarah?
I am also intrigued as to how a T1000 came to be there - maybe a contingency to try again after Skynet knew the 1984 terminator failed?
Whew....
If Ahnuld S. is going to be in this movie, what might be cool to do with his presence (perhaps the only thing left to do, where he'd still be actually relevant) is explain/show why the T-800s always look like him. Ahnuld could play the original designer of the 800s, kind of like how Bishop (from "Aliens"😉 looked like Charles (Bishop) Weyland ("Aliens vs Predators"😉, or how Star Trek's Data looks like Noonian Soong.
It would be a nice, come-full-circle touch, methinks.
